Publisher Description
'THE TROOP scared the hell out of me, and I couldn't put it down. Not for the faint-hearted' STEPHEN KING
He felt something touch his hand. Which is when he looked down.
For the scouts of Troop 52, three days of camping, hiking and survival lessons on Falstaff Island is as close as they'll get to a proper holiday.
Which was when he saw it.
But when an emaciated figure stumbles into their camp asking for food, the trip takes a horrifying turn. The man is not just hungry, he's sick. Sick in a way they have never seen before.
Which was when he screamed.
Cut off from the mainland, the troop face a terror far worse than anything they could have made up around a campfire. To survive they will have to fight their fears, the elements...and eventually each other.
Winner of the inaugural James Herbert Award, THE TROOP is a novel that will not fail to get under your skin...
Customer Reviews
Fantastic.
Edge of your seat, white knuckles. Well done.
Not scary but horrifying
I chose this book for one of my six reads in a Halloween reading challenge and it absolutely delivered the horror I was looking for. If Stand By Me was a coming of age adventure, this is a coming to death adventure. Innocence collides with an unstoppable force of destruction, a blind hunger supercharged by man’s stupidity and greed.
Best horror book I’ve read since Full Dark, No Stars
This booked grabbed my attention from the first to the last page. Well worth adding to your horror library.
